JCT: Don't those dumb billionaires who turned down John
Turmel's 10% Royalty for the purchase of Brantford Bucks on
CBC's Dragons' Den look stupid now. My friend Bruce
McBurney, President of the Brantford Inventors Club, was on
the show that same night promoting his high-voltage (smaller
particle) colloidal silver and gold and they threw him off
in derision! I guess they didn't believe in the "old wives'
tales" so they could believe in any "new high voltage tales"
either. Glad I gambled on taking Bruce's colloidal silver
for years. So the Dragons blew two great offers on the same
night and no one knows yet! Har har har har har har.
Silver bullet for cancer: Metal can kill some tumours better
than chemotherapy with fewer side effects

Silver can kill some cancers as effectively as chemotherapy
and with potentially fewer side effects, new research claims.
Scientists say that old wives tales about the precious metal
being a 'silver bullet' to beat the Big C could be true.
The metal already has a wide range of medicinal uses and is a
common antiseptic, antibiotic and means of purifying water in
the third world.
Good news: Silver can kill some cancers as effectively as
chemotherapy and with potentially fewer side effects, new
research has claimed
And British researchers now say that silver compounds are as
effective at killing certain cancer cells as a leading
chemotherapy drug, but with potentially far fewer side-
effects. They compared it to Cisplatin, currently used to
treat a wide variety of cancers, but known to have harsh side
effects including nausea, vomiting and even kidney damage.
Silver is used already in everyday products such as deodorant
with no known side-effects, and could make for a potentially
cheaper alternative to platinum-based Cisplatin.
Researchers from the University of Leeds conducted lab tests
which exposed breast and colon cancer cells to various silver-
based chemicals over a six day period.
Results, published in journal Dalton Transactions, showed that
these silver-compounds were 'as effective as Cisplatin' at
killing cancer with potentially fewer side effects.
While the team are still unsure about how exactly silver
battles cancer, they think its effectiveness may be caused by
the structure surrounding silver atoms, known as its ligand.
Way forward: Researchers from the University of Leeds found
that silver could be used to help defeat breast cancer
They think this may help release the silver ion into cells
when it enters the body, killing any cancer.
Study author Dr Charlotte Willans plans to spend the next year
looking closely at what effect silver has on both cancerous
and healthy cells, and whether it could be a safe and
effective new anti-cancer drug.
She said: 'It's certainly an exciting discovery, although I
think we have a lot of work to do in the future. It opens the
doors in terms of what we can do and investigate.
'Getting these results also gives us the opportunity we need
to apply for funding to take the research further.
'This could lead to a cheaper, less toxic alternative to
current treatments for cancer.'
Explaining the research in greater detail, Dr Willans added:
'As many are unfortunately aware, chemotherapy can be a very
gruelling experience for the patient.
'Finding effective, yet non-toxic drugs is an ongoing problem,
but these preliminary results are an important step in solving
it.
'Our research has looked at the structure which surrounds a
central silver atom. This "shrubbery" is what determines how
reactive it is and what it will interact with.
'Our research has used different types of these ligands to see
which is the most effective against cancer cells.'
JCT: Anyway, this seems great vindication of a powerful old
wives tale and a great inventor. Besides, it seems an all-win
no-loss situation. Like marijuana! Can't hurt you and may
help!
So the Dumb Billionaires (French media dubbed them that) on
Dragons' Den blow investing in Colloidal Silver on the very
same night the blow investing for a 10% royalty on Brantford
Bucks! May not be so high next time it's offered!
